Scans everquest2.exe in the base path and any LP_REGION_XX_XX directories for the latest file activity and uses that path.

In the event EQ2 is installed on a drive that does not support this type of file data it will pick the 1st LP_REGION_XX_XX directory.

Of course it could totally pick wrong; that is why I don't auto populate the path, the user has to take some sort of action. Press the reg button if active or populate the path field. Making them see the path and hopefully correcting any issues.. (wishful thinking I know)

since running the new patcher i lost most of my maps. The ones i tried were ruins of varsoon, DFC, stormhold. Those are the ones i have recently been in. I checked it, and it shows the correct UI and the correct EQ2 location in the settings. checked the EQ2.ini file and it shows:
cl_ui_skinname ProfitUI
cl_ui_subdir UI/

and i see the eq2maps director under profitui folder.

What am i missing?

**update**
Went ahead and just removed all of the old files and ran the manual scan. the dungeon maps are back now.

I have tried using the "use registry" and dragging Everquest2.exe to the program. The path listed is:
C:\Program Files\Sony Online Entertainment\Installed Games\EverQuest II\

My UI folder is ProfitUI

OS is Vista home premium 32

When I click OK, I get a window titled, "EverQuest Map AU" with the message, "The system cannot find the path specified."

It then informs me that there is an update available (even though I am running the latest version, downloaded a few times to be certain). Then it goes into a loop and will not let me close the program popping up the "The system cannot find the path specified." window every time I try to close it. I have to use Task Manager to get the program to close.

i have just installed drumsui and eq2maps on main pc and its working fine! but on laptop, have got as far as installing drumsui .. works great .. but now haveing probs with maps. doing exactly same thing as i did for main pc .. so i cant figure it out.

only difference with main pc/laptop is that on main pc i use station launchpad; and onlptop i use launcher (launchpad doesnt work on it).
